Cheese

Frown when taking pics.
Nothing’s cheesier than smiles—
Frozen on a face.

I hear the phone snap.
After faking silly smiles,
I stare forever.

I see the photos
And they look so wonderful—
For a horror flick.

Click, click, click, click, click.
Well, that sound won’t make me sick.
This is so much fun.

Next time I won’t smile.
I’ll give you my best Ice Cube—
With attitude too.

Next time I hear “cheese”,
You better be talking food—
Unless you like frowns.
